Homeless Man with a Golden Voice Gets a Job

[caprafan]

Instead of an automatic soap dispenser, they should make one that yells at the dirty people who leave the bathroom without washing their hands.

[TransgressiveInkgirl]

When I first saw the ad for the soap dispenser, I had the exact same reaction

[hppanther12]

hank, that's an iris...

[fuzluv95]

I typed in "Is Hank Green p..." and got "is hank green pregnant".... *sigh*

[ladyunemo]

Instead has the same number of vowels as lieu. Silly Hank.

[iamacatspy]

@ladyunemo But there's more consonants.

[veryspecialist]

@ladyunemo but lieu has a higher vowel:consonant ratio :P

[thatonefreckledgirl]

"It's Wednesday and you know what that means" instantly thought of DailyGrace.

[dracoscorupasofistic]

automatic soap dispensers= worthless!

[kristinemarcotte]

Think Geek is awesome

[lizzielaing]

"a dog is angry at me " hahahaha

[globalfraud]

on bing when you type "is hank green" the last suggestion is pregnant.

[bellacullen98a]

OH MY GOD! FINALLY SOMEBODY ELSE UNDERSTANDS WHAT I MEAN WHEN I SAY THE SOAP DISPENSERS ARE POINTLESS!

[ThisFutureAuthor]

FINALLY someone else understands the pointlessness of those soap dispensers!!!!! one touch free thing I would like to see in public bathrooms are all the doors. think of how every single person touches the metal locks and handles of those doors, before the wash their hands!!

[HanziiiRawrr]

Exactly! Nobody believes me when I say those pumps are a waste of money, -__-

you're gonna be washing the germs off with the soap you pumped out anyway... -__- lol :)

[unreasonablyawkward]

our beau ti ful winter wonderland!

[24Pianist]

You just said the exact same thing I did when I first saw those stupid soap dispensers!

[nalakitty01]

FINALLY!! Someone else understands the stupidity of automatic soap dispensers! >.<

[SKETCH730]

You are the only person i have heard mention that those stupid soap despenser thingies are ridiculous. I work in a dentist and they are buying them for the surgeries! Its ridiculous!

[awickedmystery]

@SKETCH730 YOU WORK IN A DENTIST?! Someone alert the media. This is huge.

[ddc32997]

Bing:

Because

It's

Not

Google

:)

[bobthepurpleostrich]

my whole Christmas list is stuff from think geek :)

[aSnowyEvening]

Trip down memory lane: this was my first vlogbrothers video. Never forget to be awesome guys!

[TheHatOfDestiny]

the soap dispenser isn't the problem, the tap is the problem. Do you wash your hands after you turn your tap off?

Nope.

Eeeeww.....

[lfstaib91]

I want to have a vodka in a soap dispenser party.

[banshee3843]

I know this video is months and months old but THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I have been saying those soap dispensers were stupid since the first time I saw an ad for one! And my boyfriend (who is normally not a moron) has actually ARGUED WITH ME about the stupidity of that product!! Knowing that Hank agrees with me makes me SOOOOOO happy!

[banshee3843]

[achiles230]

i actually have that soup dispencer....

[dontkillkenny7]

That is not a lilac.

[rjqg327]

i looked up "is john green" on google and it said "is john green gay?"

[B4K4xNi]

THINKGEEK~~~<3

[KelOfMindelan]

3:24 that's an iris...not a lilac.

But who cares because that camera is SO COOL

[woltz9999]

I gave Ted Williams a lift once. man that dude and his old lady was cooked on crack. But him doing that cool ass voice payed for the lift LOL

[FlobotsFan101]

THINKGEEK <3

[FlobotsFan101]

THINKGEEK <3

[oh9ah6]

THATS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID WHEN I SAW THAT SOAP PUMP.

[ChiCubs4012]

Now, if you type in "john green is", not only does bing come up with fat, but it also says overrated and a scumbag.... i think somebody at bing needs to clean up the auto complete.

[palsb4gals]

i agree with TheLimeyLord completely it is so idiotic

[Tahonamaya]

I typed in Hank Green is, it came up with, is awesome, is batman, is cute, is gay, and, is humpy. YouTube tells me that's not a word. I agree. Mind is blown.

[dumbledorerox98]

1:23 Hank, you should not have a Starbucks cap in your hand. You should not be drinking coffee. You don't need it.

[marquoth]

"Lieu" means "place." Interestingly, so does "stead." So you could say "in lieu" in stead of "in place" or you could say "in place" in lieu of "in stead" ... I could go on

[ReKrisB]

Bing:

John Green is fat

Hank Green is cute

....that's what happens when there's more Google results for John. Bing seems to be like its irritated cousin X3

Although, Google DOES now think that Hank Green is Batman.

Thus, I think Google wins now...

[MissStarkid222]

One of your best videos, i laughed an extreme amount.

Winkitty!

[g2theIrishPianist]

@MissStarkid222 Mostly unrelated to your comment, but I am SO glad I'm not the only one to still use winkitty. =D

[LittleLori305]

Thank you. So much. I have been saying this since the commercials for the hands free soap dispensers began. I have never heard anyone else point this out and it makes me so happy to hear it.

[FuzzCutieNerd]

THAT'S AN IRIS YOU IDIOT!!!!!!

LILACS ARE BUSHES AND HAVE CLUMPS OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS EVER!!!!!!!!!

[TheNerd1Nerd2]

@FuzzCutieNerd Calm down, he made an annotation correcting it.

[YuGiOhfan132]

i didn't know you were batman!

[kdfljgfldghldfgshdfl]

You're headdesk is nothing compared to mine. I split my desk in two.

[omgasmallbox]

mind. blown.

[magicloveserenity]

HA at Bing results :') Hilarious

[SuperPrettyCOLORS]

yeah but hank, you didn't use your fists in your headeask even though it was in your instructions.

[thegothprincess01]

this vid was uploaded on my birthday!!!

[piglatin123]

I am laughing so hard at this. Brothers never stop being brothers, eh?

WE LOVE YOU JOHN AND HANK <3 DFTBA

[animeotaku]

The other day, a friend said to me, "Hey, do you know what Think Geek i-- Wait, that's a stupid question. Of course you know."

I just laughed.

[phazeet]

I just entered "John Green is" into google. And it autocompleted "John Green is overrated". hehe

[xreier]

lol google wants to know if hank is pregnant and gay .....

[TheJeffSavage]

The 'Foley' effect... not real. Actual face desk, just about all the time.

[TheAlygatorRAWR]

Hank, Google caught up. Get it on "Is Hank" :D

[xbanxsanityx]

google is catching up. "Is Ha" autocompletes now :).

[queenfrostine97]

About the hand-soap thing, I feel the same way when people push down the hand-sanitizer bottle with their elbow....YOUR JUST GONNA WASH IT ANYWAY

[runeskill]

Bowl and chopsticks in the background!! (under guitar) :DDD

[LuneFromage]

My brother and I always make fun of the toothpaste cousin of that soap dispenser... Not so much the actual dispenser itself, but the commercials for it. They problematize sometimes getting a little bit of toothpaste on the counter, and turn it into a huge catastrophe. The people in the commercial are completely able- bodied, yet they have no ability to squeeze toothpaste onto a toothbrush... and the results are hilarious. There is no end to the amount of useless products that we're told we need.

[NovaBUSFan]

Hank, I tried "is h" in Google Chrome, and it brought up "is hank green awesome" on the first try like Bing. Congrats!

[bandkidsrule]

@NovaBUSFan This is still true on Jan 11, 2012.

[NovaBUSFan]

@bandkidsrule

Not surprised! Nerdfighters are everywhere!!!

[NovaBUSFan]

@NovaBUSFan

I have the most liked comment? I FEEL SPECIAL!!!

[randumpanduh]

I'm pretty sure that was some variety of a small iris. Not a lilac. Lilacs are purple but also big bushes XD lol still love ya Hank :)

[Toto77777]

holy fuck this dude is weird awesome :D

[MrScrubsAddict]

@MrJackGallows and @beaviz810izback need better things to do with their time.

[EucharistOfHypnos]

goddamn you're white as hell

[amandapearl2]

Yay Ted Williams! My fav radio station, WNCI, found him :) yay Dave and Jimmy :D

[Samiesmiles9]

I FEEL THE SAME ABOUT THE SOAP THINGA!

[angus20e]

i hope somebody already caught this, but that flower is not a lilac. it looks like an iris but i can't be sure from the video.

are nerdfighters always bad at natural history trivia? it seems to be an unfortunate trend

[jdownloaderCOM]

a GAY-GEEK :s

[beaviz810izback]

@ Hank. You know what would be funny? To see that homeless dude wrap a guitar string around your neck in the middle of one of your stupid Proclaimers songs and pull till your head comes off. Then see him direct his attention to another camera and hear him say "now here's Tom with the weather" with a big grin on his face. Now that's fucking funny.

[MrJackGallows]

@beaviz810izback @ Hank and @ John, I'll beat the living snot out of this chump for you guys anytime. I think I do more pushups. And I have a flagrant disgregard for this kind of thing. Gotta stand up for my nerd bitches.

@ Beavis. Beavis? Really? That show in the 90's that only the high school dropouts and drug addicted found time in their evenings to watch?

Really?

[beaviz810izback]

@MrJackGallows. Ooooh. Oh no, the wannabe tough guy is gonna get me! Jumping me would be the LAST thing you'd do. Your mommy and nerd friends wouldn't be happy. "Really really really really really" ???? Oh man that "really" phrase is so fucking cool man, I wanna talk like that too! Durrrrrrr!!!

[MrJackGallows]

@beaviz810izback Wow, I should've looked at your picture first. Is that some kind of medical condition, or do you just now shower? I never said I'd jump you. I said I'd beat the snot out of you. And by the look of your triple chin into complete acne takeover, you wouldn't stand a chance tiger. Yeah. Really. You are a fucking greaseball man. Hate on John Green? Trying to make money off of people? They're married, have families and houses and lives. You're a fucking idiot.

[MrJackGallows]

@beaviz810izback Call me whatever you want, greaseball. I only attack fuck ups like you. Who say the stupidest, most unbelieveable shit on the videos that I watch everyday. I'm a fan of these clever folks, and as a the nerdpsycho that I am, yes, I would smack you around like the little bitch ass you are. Chump.

[beaviz810izback]

@MrJackGallows. Nerdfighters aren't clever lol. It doesn't take much to impress idiots like you. "Chump." Like I said, try to "smack" me around and it would be the last thing you'd do. "I only attack".... really? You do? Wow that sure gets rid of what the nerdfighters call "world suck" doesn't it? Insult for an insult, yeah, that's gonna work. You and them don't even have the brain to figure that one out. You like conflict as much or more than I do.

[MrJackGallows]

@beaviz810izback I will leave it to the nerd fighters. Click on my profile, and then click on butterballs, and my fellow nerds can vote. The last thing I'd do. lols. Are you in Canada by any chance? I'd love to keep going with this. Jack vs Butterball. Who would win. Hmmmmmmm..

[beaviz810izback]

@MrJackGallows. First you call me tiger and then you seem to want my balls buttered, then you want to know If I live in Canada after that saying "Hmmmmmmm" what the hell is that shit? What is that some queer moan? Sounds like you want me to yourself for a boof, you fuckin homo. Ha ha ha a "vote" you are a fucking dumbass. "lols" ?? Wow "lols" laugh out loud...s, that's cool durrrrr!! You probably like buttered skin lollys too right ha ha "lols." Shut the fuck up.

[MrJackGallows]

@beaviz810izback neck zits. everytime i try and take you and your stupid shit seriously, i just look at your picture. and vomit. bye man. not worth my attention any longer. pop those neck zits anytime.

[beaviz810izback]

@MrJackGallows. Good, get lost. Ha ha ha "zits" you are a dumbasshole. I have no "zits" dumbass. Wow dude, I'm sure the nerdfighters are proud of you, after all they say they prefer shakespeare insults and promote peace to get rid of "world suck." I'm quite sure you are just adding to it. But as long as you insult me they'll probably side with you because their benevolence is fake.

[crazyJ6245]

I LOVE THINK GEEK. CAFFEINATED BEEF JERKY FTW.

[MrKelsonMah]

being addicted to alcohol and drugs can also be due to other factors outside your control...

[MrJackGallows]

@MrKelsonMah like what. at what point is you doing drugs out of your control? there's always, always a choice man. walk away from the crack den? say no? move out of mom and dads house because they drink too much?

i don't know. i just disagree with you.

[AdvisorMisty47]

damn u are so dumb

[planetrewind]

2:27 jizzed

[MsdARKandtWISTYgal]

google now gets hank green is awesome at is h plus bing doesn't get hank green is awesome until you search it so now all is right in the world

[regularguy5mb]

Bing beat out Google?

For shame Google... for shame.

Do you not know what Hank has done for you?

[SPOOKSTR]

How the fuck did i end up here listening to this annoying sounding jerk?

[massac0r]

u are SO cute

[FruitLoopErika]

As of March 9th, 2011,if you type in "is Hank Green" the following comes up

-Is Hank Green awesome

-Is Hank Green gay

-Is Hank Green Batman

-Is Hank Green a Christian

-Is Hank Green made of awesome

-Is Hank Green Jewish

[ChandrashekharLimit]

lol awesome stuff

[AnnaKurusis]

lol i love Hank's laugh when he searches john green is fat on bing XD

[Zemarzo]

i Got it on "is" with space no h google pwns bing

[Draie1]

Thankyou! That is one of the most idiotic adverts I've seen just from the persepective of what the product actually is and yet people I know don't see the stupidity! Glad to know I'm not the only one that notices the bizarre(or just plain stupid) things around.

[FiveFangirlsFTW]

Those of us who read lips weren't suprised :)

[x3aurora3x]

That's an iris! 

[karma45801]

that man came from my Lima ohio. my town

[girlndocs]

It's an iris, not a lilac :)

[Starrehchan]

When I tried it, igoogle got it on 'is'

Not even a space! :D

I'd say we have sucess...

[sockostealshearts]

haha google is so much better than bing

[ZoeMoi]

I know someone who had that soap dispenser...

Result? Soap on the table ALL THE TIME because it was enough to just move your hand near it xD

[Tinman11223344]

Fill it with vodka and automatically fill drinks you say?

Where can I get one...?

[AuntEon]

I had same thought at John's "head desk." Now your's had desk objects jumping. That's more than foley work, my secret sibling. -- Vodka dispenser? Yeah! Keeps the shots evenly poured so that party members drink in moderation. Thanks for the idea.

[mrscarecrow69r]

the way bing works is that u typed the words in the history will auto complete so thats why it showed up

[pokemonmaster181818]

I really want to know what was in the bowl In the backround... Ramen??? Soup??? Did it taste good????? Now I'm hungry!!!!

[WhyDoesSheLoveHim]

THAT'S WHAT I SAID when my mom wanted to buy one of those soap dispensers.

[JulieMooody]

@WhyDoesSheLoveHim yea me toooooo what's the friggin point ?!?!?!?! 

[WhyDoesSheLoveHim]

@JulieMooody To make money. Hahaha!

[TheLimeyLord]

The soap thing...

I scream that at the tv every time I see those commercials.

Who cares if the soap dispenser is covered in germs if your hands are about to be covered in soap?

/Oh thank goodness I'm not the only one...

[intekz8]

@TheLimeyLord u not the only 1 yep :P

[electricalbananaa]

"Hank Green is cute"...yes indeed.

[MelissaFN1]

lol Bing for the win!

@4:01 PUNISHMENT

[Firenzeni]

No offence intended to John, but you are my favourite vlogbrother. :)

[aimsical]

2:15

EXACTLY!! I can't possibly understand the importance of such a soap dispenser, but so many companies are making them!! Thank you for bringing that subject to the world's attention.

[CrescentEndeavor]

@aimsical I would make one as long as it sells XD

[thexonexinxblack]

That is an iris opening. Dutch if I'm not mistaken. And thinkgeek <3333

[franinconverse]

Thank you so much for that rant about the soap pump! I get so damn angry ever time I see the ad for it.

[AmyyLou091]

technically, this video is exactly 4 minutes long.

If you notice, it skips from @3:59 to @4:01.

It totally skipped @4:00. I checked. 5 times. Skips 4:00 every time.

[toshie534]

"is hank green awesome" is now first when you search in google!

[Kamami7]

umm...hank? That's not a lilac. It's an iris.

[deponser]

have you guys seen that homeless guy that can dance really good i got his video on my page

[VoorheesMachete]

ThinkGeek is where I buy all my furnishings.

[ElleIsMadeOfAwesome]

I love ThinkGeek! I have purchased several t-shirts from them! Also, they have a Harry Potter wand-remote-controler! You can flick and swish through channels! I WANT IT SO BAD!

[bluebird136]

At Bing you only have to type a "H" to get "hank green is cute" to pop up!

Bing is definitely better than google ;)

[RaD912]

YES FINNALY SOMEONE ELSE IN THE WORLD OUTSIDE OF MY FAMILY RECOGNISES THINK GEEK

[ChelseaIRL]

i TOTALLY wanna get that soap dispenser to use to put vodka in my drinks! XD

also, the google search now has "is hank green married" and "is hank green gay"

also, since even though you were running around like a mad person during VidCon you still stopped to say something into my camera, yes, i think you are awesome. :)

[queenmumsie]

Hey - I have one of those soap dispensers and I find it very useful - i have an in-home daycare and the kids are MUCH more inclined to use a gadget than slippery slimy soap that's brown & black from someone else's hands. It doesn't dispense enough for vodka, however. Maybe 151 rum.

[raisalin]

Talking about too many vowels... In Finnish we have this word: hääyöaie ;)

[sabgiguere]

Bing search... LOLZ!!! :D

[92samf]

Instead and lieu have the same number of vowels :P

[laughloveSNL]

i switched from google to bing for my homepage because of this. 

[PixxieWish]

you make me laugh :3

[626hunters]

thank you

for the soup thing

[faintingeagle]

Go to google (MAKE SURE INSTANT IS OFF) and type in Is hank gre

It comes up!

IS HANK GREEN AWESOME?

FUCK YES!

[OppeltDrums]

I'm pretty sure I've seen Onision run down that same alley way at the end of the video.

[Mac352cal]

I went on bing and typed in " John Green is" and it came up with "John Green is Fat" Bings words not mine!!!

[Tsugo582]

my mum has a variation of that advert...

its so bad

[tawaillesims]

I am so glad someone else shares my annoyance with the sensored soap dispenser!

[claressadubs]

Yahoo got it on "is hank g".

But I know you probably don't give a crap about Yahoo.

I like Yahoo, so, nyah. *sticks out tongue at computer screen*

For "is hank g", Google gave "is hank green married". "is hank green awesome" does not exist on google...yet.

[mexicanmissie]

THANK YOU!!!!!! THE FIRST TIME I SAW THAT THING I WAS LIKE DID YOU NOT THAT THROUGH!?!

[AnimeKitty202]

Bing doesn't have "is hank green awesome?" anymore!! :(

[randomgirl22695]

we have something like that stupid motion sensor pump thing in the UK, and i said the exact same thing XD although i went for a facepalm rather than a headdesk

[superhotpink17]

aah! Bob dylan is on the ad of your video! you just got a gazillion times cooler.

and you were already insanely cool

[graymalkin1234]

No, don't run.. That was scary...

[DeathToTheseWalls]

Thumbs down for honesty

XXXXXXDDDDDDD I officially love bing.......!!!!!

[bjl110]

"Lieu" and "instead" have the same number of vowels Hank.

[sandrilene23]

Thank you for that Headdesk, Hank! I am so glad I am not the only one who realizes the idiocy of avoiding germs while you wash the germs off your hands. Also, Thinkgeek is amazing.

[JTV300]

Everyone.. youtube is very glitchy. u should get that by now. all of the videos on youtube are one seconds longer, becuz it skipes the last second. so Hank, you dont have to spend 15 hours in target again

[lilJJ99004]

I love how he talks!!! :D "Our beautiful winter wonderland" lol :D

[jesuslovesyou223]

when you put up the video sometimes youtube adds a second so it wont get cut off
